Since Bassnectar recently filed a lawsuit against the creator of Evidence Against Bassnectar (EAB)—identified in court filings as David Montana Billings—we have just uncovered some disturbing crowd-sourced evidence that deserves a second glance. According to multiple online observers and archived posts, Billings appears to have operated a network of social media aliases that many say targeted Lorin Ashton and members of the Bassnectar community since as early as 2015. 

One particular account, @shufflinkasey, has emerged as an intriguing piece of that personae puzzle. The parallels between this account and others historically associated with Billings raise new questions about just how coordinated these online efforts may have been. 

Many Bassnectar fans already know that Billings used multiple aliases like @dbmontana, u/wdu4life, and the now-infamous @evidenceagainstbassnectar. Each account frequently discussed Bassnectar, often in emotionally charged or accusatory terms. Now, we may have just unmasked another one. A Twitter account, @shufflinkasey, wrote and acted almost identically to Billings’ other accounts, relentlessly trolling Bassnectar fans and parroting Billings’ exact accusations. The similarities are scary.  

Public records and online archives show that multiple social media accounts all seem to trace back to the same person: David Montana Billings.

Does this voice not sound like a carbon copy of @dbmontana? That’s because it very well could be.

Archived tweets show that David Billings used his @dbmontana account to troll Bassnectar since 2015. Coincidentally, another Twitter account named @shufflinkasey—also created in 2015—seems to intersect with @dbmontana to become a nearly identical voice.  Online activity patterns suggest that a single individual may have used multiple accounts to repeat similar claims, which could be easily interpreted as a coordinated amplification effort. 

Five years after this alleged sock puppet account was created, @shufflinkasey experienced a sudden surge of activity in June 2020, posting hundreds of tweets in rapid succession over three days. In the days leading up to EAB’s launch on June 29, the @shufflinkasey account fired off 120 tweets publicly indicting Bassnectar of some of society’s most heinous crimes:

This followed months of vigorously repeating the @dbmontana account’s constant talking points:

Today, the @shufflinkasey account has been completely wiped. No farewells. No deactivation notice. Just complete and total digital darkness after a targeted rampage in 2020.

Thankfully, the internet never forgets… because the attacks began much earlier than 2020. The @shufflinkasey account was created in 2015, around the height of Billing’s Weird Drunken Uncle (WDU) Facebook group, when Billings was hellbent on vilifying Bassnectar with a never-ending stream of false allegations about “music stealing” via his @dbmontana account.

An Appalling Chronology Of Defamatory Voices

Whomever was running the @shufflinkasey account seemed obsessed with convincing people that @dbmontana was right, and @bassnectar was an evil pedophile who “fucks kids” and ran a “child sex trafficking” ring. Their words were relentless and hateful, so please read on with caution:

December 10, 2015 – @shufflinkasey: “#BlackTwitter you know what to do. #ignorant”

• Portraying himself as a black man, the @shufflinkasey account first attempted to wrangle an online mob against another Twitter user.  

October 31, 2017 – @shufflinkasey: “Dude you’re the only real one one out here. People call me a troll but I read a text from a 16 yr old THREE YEARS ago that @bassnectar…”  

• This was the first reference to Bassnectar as a supposed sexual abuser, with the @shufflinkasey account complimenting the @dbmontana account as “the only real one.”  

November 29, 2017 – @shufflinkasey: “@bassnectar your days are numbered pedo.”

• The @dbmontana account posted a screenshot of a woman who falsely claimed she met Bassnectar when she was “17.” DUI records prove she was 19 when she met Bassnectar.
• The @shufflinkasey account responded to @dbmontana and accused Bassnectar of “screwing KIDS.” 

July 21, 2019 – @shufflinkasey: “You know you’re a creeper when even @bassnectar -the king of dating underage wookettes fires you for trying to fuck his fans lmfaooooo.”

• By 2019, the @shufflinkasey account was relentlessly defaming Bassnectar as a “disgusting” “date rapist” who dated “little girls.” 

May 31, 2020 – @shufflinkasey: “LOOK AT THAT N$GGER HE SPEAKS SO WELL” …”Hope his cooning was worth it lol.”

• The @shufflinkasey account tore through June of 2020 as an outraged black man, fixated on Bassnectar fans, and denigrating them as “bottom feeding RACISTS.”  

June 6, 2020 – @shufflinkasey: “Bassnectar fans don’t give a shit about BLM.” 

June 6, 2020 – @shufflinkasey: “@bassnectar wookette get her ass beat for being a racist.”  

• Shufflin Kasey targets female Bassnectar fan and call for violence against her.

 
June 8, 2020 – @shufflinkasey: “@bassnectar before you go off talking shit about black artists and what they do for #BLM how about you clean up your own house.” 

•  Shufflin Kasey calls Bassnectar fans “bottom feeding racists” while providing a screenshot discussing George Floyd. This “evidence” does not support his epithet in the least.

June 26, 2020 – @shufflinkasey: “Bassnectar is a known pedophile. He only dates under 18 girls. He was outed YEARS ago by a fan who was blackballed by Bassnectar and his lawyers and drove the fan to a nervous breakdown. The guy also had uncovered proof of Nectar stealing from other artists.”

• Note, this is exact tweet which popped up in a search for “bassnectar pedophile” and was screenshot and posted to EAB by Billings on June 29, 2020 as “evidence against bassnectar.” 

June 26, 2020 – @shufflinkasey: Bassnectar is the Harvey Weinstein of EDM.” … “Dude is a manipulative psycho.”

June 26, 2020 – @shufflinkasey: “Nope. I know DB though.”

• In response to Twitter users asking suspiciously if @shufflinkasey was @dbmontana, that single response captures the entire mystery in one sentence. Whether coincidence or confession, it reveals a user acutely conscious of their reputation in real time.
• Was this a denial couched as insider knowledge? The curious deflection — defiantly calm, yet self-aware — echoes a pattern seen in earlier DB-affiliated threads.
  

June 28, 2020 – @shufflinkasey: “You do realize she is not the only one to come forward?” 

• The same day EAB posted the lie by Rebecca Polk, falsely claiming she was abused by Bassnectar when she was “16” (DUI records prove she did not meet him until she was 19), the @shufflinkasey account set the stage for EAB to claim that “multiple victims” were coming forward. The next day, EAB reused old screenshots of Rebecca Polk’s lies, blurring out the names to trick the public into perceiving them as new victims. 

June 28, 2020 – @shufflinkasey: “there have been allegations about Bassnectar for 10 years.” 

• @shufflinkasey falsely asserts that there have been sexual assault allegations against Bassnectar since 2010, which was around the time that Lorin Ashton (32) met Rebecca Polk (19) in Tulsa, OK. This statement perfectly aligns with DB Montana’s smear campaign timeline.

June 29, 2020 – @shufflinkasey: “Just because you want to slobber all over pedophile Bassnectar’s cock doesn’t mean that its ok for him to sleep with 15 year olds.” / “How dare you assume my gender peroxide Patricia.” 

• A Twitter user correctly claims that Miranda Hughes admitted to lying about her friend Becca Polk, that Hughes claimed “Bassnectar tried to sacrifice her son to satan,” and that she “thinks rape jokes are funny and is a rap apologist” (See Part One for the receipts on Hughes’ “satan” and “rape” claims).
• In this sexually explicit tweet, @shufflinkasey hurls a disgusting attack at @wavesarrive and resorts to the same vein of name-calling (“peroxide Patricia”) that DB often used to go after BN fans. Another huge red flag: “How dare you assume my gender.”

June 29, 2020 – @shufflinkasey: “I’m 99% sure that Bassnectar and a bunch of other EDM DJs are running a pedophile ring.” 

• It is important to note that the false allegations created by Billings ten years ago – child abuse, sexual abuse, child sex trafficking, pedophilia, rape, statutory rape – all heinous crimes of sexual abuse, are patently false. In fact, a US District Attorney confirmed in writing in 2023 that, after reviewing all the supposed ‘evidence’ against Bassnectar, they found no evidence and specified in writing that they would not prosecute. 

June 29, 2020 – @shufflinkasey: “Because people are afraid of his lawyers (who have driven victims to nervous breakdowns) and the Bassnecter psychotic, rabid fanbase who are afraid of losing their safe space at his shows to do drugs.”

• One of the many examples of the @shufflinkasey account parroting identical talking points of the @dbmontana account, here referring to Billings as a “victim” and citing Billings’ nervous breakdown from 2016.

June 29, 2020 – @shufflinkasey: “My entire goal has been to expose Bassnectar as a pedophile and now that he admitted it I am VINDICATED. I’ll be waiting for my apology.”  

• @shufflinkasey trolls the official Bassnectar Network account, sparking a heated exchange that reveals DB Montana’s frequent use of the term “apology.”

July 14, 2025 – @dbmontana: “the faction of people i thought I had eradicated from the scene with the cleansing of Bassnectar… Call that a genocide.” 

• After nearly a decade of sustained online activity and targeted attacks, Billings’ rhetoric is dangerous even to this day. Look no further than the Nazi-adjacent rhetoric in the following post (“erradicate,” “cleansing,” and “genocide”). 

Although Billings is being sued specifically for his defamatory statements in 2024 and 2025, he is also being sued for “intentional infliction of emotional distress” suffered by Lorin Ashton, as a direct result of Billings’ ten-year crusade of character assassination.

Echoes and Intersections

What remains compelling is how often @shufflinkasey intersected with @dbmontana and EAB in timing and tone. When one account posted a particular allegation or theory, the others frequently echoed or shared it within hours. Some posts appeared to respond to one another conversationally, creating the illusion of community consensus.

Two days after launch, EAB posted what it attempted to pass as “proof” of sex crimes, conveniently discovered through the Twitter search terms: “bassnectar pedophile.” On the surface, it looks like EAB is simply amplifying others’ voices like @ShufflinKasey’s—sharing what he “found” to warn the public of a pedophile on the loose:

But look closer. This isn’t a discovery at all.

It appears to be one person—David Montana Billings—operating under three different social media accounts (@dbmontana, @shufflinkasey, and @evidenceagainstbassnectar). Writing as the then-anonymous admin of EAB, Billings pretended to stumble across evidence of sex crimes. It looks like Billings took a screenshot from one of his accounts, and posted it online through another account, thus presenting it as “evidence” on EAB. Maybe it’s just a coincidence? 

But how else could one single tweet from @shufflinkasey so perfectly encapsulate Billings’ top three Bassnectar conspiracy theories in 140 characters or less: (1) Billings’ false allegations of “pedophil[ia],” (2) Billings’ own “nervous breakdown” that he blamed on Bassnectar, and (3) Billings’ debunked conspiracy theories about Bassnectar “stealing from other artists.”

Was it because this was always simply one person speaking to himself, about himself, and then cross-posting on EAB to virally sell his smear campaign? If so, that would mean Billings staged multiple conversations designed to look organic, as if multiple people were corroborating the same accusations. 

At the time, none of us realized that this was all staged. The false allegations seemed to come from a third-party source, a random Twitter user echoing what ‘other accounts’ were already saying. So why didn’t we notice? Because, at the time, during the height of the 2020 COVID pandemic, nobody knew Billings was operating the EAB account. At the time, we were constantly being distracted by EAB’s mountain of “evidence,” which was swarm-posted purposefully to stir mass confusion. And, at the time, Kasey Richardson (@shufflinkasey) was seen as just another hateful Bassnectar troll. 

But now, it’s time to ask the question: was @shufflinkasey just another piece in Billings’ elaborate sock-puppet network? 

Stay Tuned…more coming soon.
